Gen AI: Working with Hugging Face - the "GitHub" for Large Language Models
Tuesday, 5:00 PM EST - SAND DUNE
HuggingFace.co is the premier site for all things around large language models (LLMs). It has free and open source models and datasets to easily access, download and start working with. As well, it provides the well-known Transformers library of functions that you can use with Python to code up quick and simple apps that interface with LLMs for chatbots, sentiment analysis, classification, etc. And it also allows for direct access to use some models with no coding necessary.
Join expert Brent Laster for an exploration of the site and learn how to navigate it and use its many features. We'll also see how to use its models and the Transformers library with simple Python coding to do typical LLM interactions.
